Vilmorin has just closed a syndicated loan deal of 300 million Euros with its longstanding banking partners, maturing in October 2015. This loan agreement provides for early termination of the previous syndicated funding whose maturity was initially due in June 2011.
This new syndicated loan agreement was reached in favorable market conditions, and offers greater financial flexibility in running external growth projects.
The transaction was finalized in the form of a club deal signed with a bankers' syndicate comprising ten French and international financial institutions. It has been arranged by the Crédit Lyonnais and the Crédit Agricole Centre France banks, acting as coordinators.
After its successful capital increase of 200 million Euros achieved during the course of the fiscal year 2009-2010, this operation strengthens the financial capacities of Vilmorin as it proactively accelerates its development.
